Re: narrative question

[(Anonymous)]

If it's in 1st, you can still swap POVs for the scene by scene breaking and giving it a title such as "Interlude,

This^.

I mean, yes, doing something like this probably does bring down the quality of the writing a little bit. But unless you've arbitrarily decided to hold yourself to a particularly high writing standard, then I say go for it.

In my opinion, this is one of those instances where fanfic calls for something different than original published fiction would. If you were writing original published fiction, I suspect your editor would say to make the scene fit smoothly and cohesively into the narrative or else drop it. Because that's the kind of rule professional writing tends to hold itself to quite strictly.

But what makes fanfic enjoyable for the majority of readers is typically more about giving the reader the emotional payoff they want. And it sounds like the scene you're grappling with will strongly contribute to doing that for the reader. To axe it for the sake of "better writing" would be to put the principles of original, professional-caliber writing ahead of the principles of fanfic writing.

True, fanfic readers don't want good writing as much as feels.
